Description

Most people are told their exhaustion is a personal failure—weak discipline, bad habits, not enough willpower. The truth is structural: modern life overloads the human mind and quietly erodes agency.

The 5 Laws of Agency is a short, framework-driven book that explains why capable people feel overwhelmed, scattered, and disconnected—and how to regain control without self-blame or endless “life optimization.”

The book introduces five laws that rebuild the internal architecture of agency:

• Control the frame

• Energy beats time

• Direction beats speed

• Externalize cognitive load

• Use leverage instead of brute force

Best for readers who want clarity and structure.

Not written for readers seeking quick hacks or motivational cheerleading.
